Some people believe that whether we need a teacher or not depends on the specific areas in which we need help. However, from my point of view, we need a teacher from the day we are born.
In the first place, in some cases in particular, it might be immensely frustrating for us to have to do a library research or read a lot of magazines or books to find out what the solution to the problem that we are seeking is. I do believe that the solution lies in having someone as a teacher to guide us. In this way we can simply know what it is we need. Moreover, a teacher could make a complex problem understandable for us.
In the second place, since a teacher is more experienced than we, his or her advice could be helpful if it is applied intelligently by us. A teacher can provide us with a blueprint, and give us helpful hints and guidelines.
Furthermore, not only will they evaluate our studying process and tell us, after figuring out what our weaknesses are, but they also will equip us with some insightful views over the whole subject, and offer their experience in overcoming difficulties of the particular subject.
In addition, even from a brief glance at different people's lifestyles, we can simply grasp the fact that everyone believes having a teacher at all times is a brilliant idea.
Take selfless parents for example. From time to time, you can see some parents that despite their less-income lifestyle, support their children financially to have a good teacher, get into university or even have a private tutor.
Studying on our own, on the other hand, could make us feel independent. In spite of the facts that have just been mentioned, it is my honest belief that studying by ourselves could be more effective than overly relying on a teacher.
In other words: “practice makes perfect."
You improve with each essay Richard.Keep up the good work.
